RO 37 size comparisons

[logo]

After trying on Royal oaks/chronos from 37-38-39-41 anyone have some size comparison photos of a 15550 or 15450 relative to some common reference points like a sub, DD40/DJ41, Daytona, DJ36/explorer, Speedmaster (bonus if 321), Patek aquanaut, etc or anything else you think would be helpful as a comparison? And anyone own the 15450or gray dial?

vs 118238

Grey 15550 and 124270 are mine.
Lousy photo but good for size comparison

I think the day date / 15450 was from Palex


Better picture of the grey dial to make up for the flat/ over exposed pictures above

About 6.7-6.8. Here’s my DJ41 for comparison a bit zoomed out.

So how did you feel about the different sizes on wrist ?

The 37mm looks significantly better in my view. Good luck making a decision on what you prefer

Mixed I suppose. Feel I can wear both sizes based on lugs, but to me the 41 feels kind of empty and wears thicker than the numbers would have you believe. Think this would be my preferred size for any complications, open worked etc - things that need more dial space. In contrast the overall proportions of the 37 are great, with the minimalist dial working well. Too bad no rose gold (without gemset bezel or openworked) or silver dial ST option in 37.

I also find the lack of silver dial option in 37mm a strange choice after just one year with the 15550 redesign.
It’s a crisp clean look and the lighter dials felt like they wore larger. Maybe it will get re- released in the future.

I agree with your thoughts on the 41mm version ….. it just felt like too much dial / too much watch on my 7 inch wrist…… but that’s all just preference for me, it sat within the wrist edges .
How it looked to me


How it looked in the mirror with the slack / unadjusted bracelet.

It is funny how watches can look very different to our own eye looking down vs the mirror shots. Here’s a 43mm taupe on my wrist. Like the size from this angle, wish I had a 15500 shot from this view as well

15550st fits nicely on my 6.2inch wrist.

The fit is awesome and absolutely love the bracelet.

My diver is 44mm/ 50mm L2L.
It’s almost too big but I love it on rubber and don’t like it on its stock bracelet.
Sportier utility bezels or chronograph functionality gives a watch more reason to be large IMO.
The AP chrono on strap carries its larger size well.

I would go smaller. I have 7.2 inch wrists and prefer 37mm or 39mm. 41mm just looks off like the others mentioned. Unless you have some giant chunky wrist.
